Fun at Spring Gatherings

Group discussions at the Bristol Spring Gathering
People gathered at the Bristol Spring Gathering

York played host to a fantastic day of inspiring interactions and workshops for 25 CAAT supporters in March. Debates on the day included what keeps the myth alive that the arms trade is essential for the British economy and how to get our MPs to go beyond their party lines on closing the government's arms sales department.

Lots of exciting plans were shared including: organising a hustings involving over ten campaigning groups including the CAAT group in Edinburgh; the London group beginning to share their news on Twitter; three people joining CAAT's Speaker Network; and lots of people planning on targeting their candidates and MPs around the election!

This Spring Gathering was shortly followed by another in Bristol, just weeks before the election.

Lots of people said the best thing about the day was "Meeting great people."
